i used to drag both my feet
i was limping and hurting
still dragging my feet, hoping to find a pair of shoes
it was dimmed
i saw shiny things from afar
shoes
i wore them and walked
slowly
since my feet were hurting
i should slow down, shouldnt i?
i saw birds flying, theyre fast
oh, how i wish i could do the same
i could, couldnt i?
then i started running
we were on the same pace
the difference was that i was running on the ground and they were flying in the air
it didnt matter
we both had our ways
but then i tripped and fell
into a hole
deep dark hole
the birds were gone
the sight of forest and sky were gone
i was left alone with a dot of light
had i forgot,
that no matter how hard i tried to catch up
i could never
i can never
hope is nothing but an illusion
and i fell for it
